Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement

Who:  Amber & Jonathan
What:  Princess Diaries 2
Where:  @ home - taped off Disney Channel
Why:  I like Anne Hathaway (from Get Smart)

Neither of us has seen Princess Diaries 1, but the plot wasn't too complex to follow.  Basically Mia has graduated college in the US, and has returned to the (made up) land of Genovia, where she will become Queen.  Julie Andrews is the current Queen, and Mia's grandmother.

But - oh no - there is a 200 year old law that says a Queen must be married!  What ever will Mia do?

Actually, it's not as cheesy as it sounds.  It is cheesy because Mia has a ridiculous bachlorette sleeping party with all the other royalty of the world (including Raven).  But the whole "you have to get married in 30 days" isn't as bad as you may imagine.  Mia agrees to an arranged marriage, because she is really passionate about being Queen.  

Did I mention there is a guy who is the 2nd in command, who is waiting to be King if Mia does not get married?  And he's cute!  What ever will happen?
